How much weight loss do you guys normally account for on a brisket before trimming and cooking? I did two up yesterday, keeping track of my weights because I need a decent figure for a large event I'm doing in a few weeks.
1 2
Starting: 9.63lbs - 13.72lbs
Trimmed: 6.63lbs - 10.04lbs
Cooked: 3.625lbs - 6.00lbs
So overall I had a 62% loss on the first and a 56% loss on the second.
